Veg planting

At last we have managed to get some veg out into the plot. 3 types of Cabbage, some Cauliflower and Kale as well as Onions and lots of Leeks. The Potatoes seem to have started to move, will be a bit late but we should have a crop!!!!

Sheep gathering

Have managed to gather 26 Hebridean ewes and shearlings and one ram (Fergus) off Tolsta Head. Think they may be in need of a trim. Shearing when I get back from The Great Yorkshire Show next weekend!!!

Hand milking Ruby

Me milking out Ruby (the cow with Mastitis). Think see is improving, is walking freely now and has her appetite back. Udders don't look quite as red and inflamed.
